      Sweet, loving mixed breed needs a new home

    We rescued a sweet beautiful mixed breed from a shelter in Newark, NJ. She is smart and loving but is very protective of our home and 3 children. She does not like other people coming to the house and when the children are running around in the yard with their friends she can get a little wild. She needs a new home with people who will love her like we do. She loves to run outside and play with other dogs. When she is tired, she will curl up at your feet.

      "Walks-in-white-paint" needs to be saved from the axeman 3/14/2011

    TEMPORARY FOSTER (just a few days?) NEEDED

    "Walks-in-white-paint" (not her real name) was owner surrendered to the SPCA. Her owner said she doesn't get along with other dogs so she was deemed unadoptable & put on the euthanasia list. She's not the prettiest dog in the world, been neglected & has scars on her face, but she deserves a life nonetheless.

      Margot needs a forever home!

    margo-1 My name is Margot. I am a 9 month old pit bull from Crown Heights, Brooklyn.

    Unfortunately my original parents bought me from a breeder only to neglect me and left me home alone for 13 hours a day. They didn't do much for me as far as training or socializing was concerned either. They just let me be my wild self. But I got lucky and some people realized there was a problem and then my foster parents came and got me out of there.

    I am absolutely adorable. I have a gorgeous grey/blue... [Read More]

      Sophie needs a permanent home (Maryland)

    IMG_20100904_081017 Meet Sophie, a sweet 2 year old boxer/pit mix.

    She's excellent with people; I marked kids as "no" because she hasn't met any kids while she's been in our care (approx 5 months). She's very sweet, and will do anything for cuddles.

    She is house trained, but she's on a 6 hour clock; you will need to walk her regularly.

    She is not good with other dogs; she's very jealous of toys and attention, and will attack to make her point. This is the reason we can't keep her; we originally a... [Read More]

      "Parkway", the sweet, smart and playful Pit Bull, is looking for a loving new home!

    IMG_9303_2 We found Parkway several months ago abandoned on the side of a major highway near our home. She was very friendly and, of course, scared. We have taken her in and fallen in love with her ever since. She is fully house trained, very smart, doesn't chew belongings (we can leave her to roam loose in the house and the worse she'll do is lay on our beds!), has lots of energy, loves to go for long walks and runs and is very playful. Unfortunately due to our living situation we cannot keep Parkway... [Read More]

      3-legged sweet pitt in a NJ shelter - needs a foster!

    baby Hi! I was just at the Burlington County Animal Shelter today to peruse the dogs a bit. I have been seriously considering fostering dogs, but have not yet made the 100% committment yet. There was this dog named BABY there - she was SO SAD! She has 3 legs, had treatable mange and it looks like she could have an eye infection (not sure). Well, they had her right up there with the other "very adoptable dogs" that usually get put right up in the front - she HAD to be sweet. After looking... [Read More]

      SoCal - Azure (stabbed Pit Bull puppy)

    Azure Azure was stabbed 7 times with a samarai sword by her owner's boyfriend back in January. She was later relinquished to the Pet Rescue Center in Mission Viejo, CA. If anyone could pass on her information to contacts, etc., we are trying to find her a home before Christmas.

    Here is her page for anyone that is interested and one of the articles on her that appeared in the local newspaper.
